Netra T1 105 (sparc64) optimization

2006-11-29 Thread Alexandre Vieira
Hi, I'm responsible for building a testbed for a network service solution and I was given some old hardware to work with. For example, I have a netra T1 105 working as a bridge between two vlans in order to use ipfw+dummynet to create packet loss and latency tests in a platform that was already
